Talk:Sanballat the Horonite

Was Equal to the Emergency?
About mid article is the statement "Nehemiah was equal to the emergency and attended strictly to his work." What does this mean? "Equal" doesn't seem to make sense here. Is this a typo of some sort? Or maybe a confusion of words from a non-native-English speaker? — al-Shimoni  (talk) 17:57, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
